Network Vision/LTE - Raleigh/Durham Market (includes Fayetteville)
hscrugby replied to spotmeterf64's topic in Markets
Rode around stopping and cycling airplane all over. No lte love. Anywhere. 150 miles. Felt like a really ugly fat male version of the T-Mobile chick -

In photobucket you can change the resolution from website. I don't think the app has a button -

If I ride around will sensorly record if and where it hits LtE? Haven't played with it much, but was planning on a motorcycle ride tomorrow. I could make sure to include that area. If not I'll just stop several times. -
The one at the bottom that has the IMG tags around it.

Ahhh. Good point. You'd think I'd remember something about how this stuff works. (Used to work for Ericsson in the cell side) but it's amazing how you block out stuff. I was forgetting the sectors throughput could be limiting, and completely focusing on it being the back end of the data feed that would be overloaded for data. Lesson learned too many people at walmart, 2 pubs, best buy and sprint store have sprint phones. People on the other side of the street all must be on VZW. thanks. -

It's the same tower according to my phone. That said, I think it's more of an interference thing maybe? As there is a VZW tower very close to the Walmart side. Here is my current speedtest from about 50-100 yards from a new tower. (I took the screenshot after I was back in my office where it doesn't get a mobile network anymore) -

I've noticed this too. Never understood it, same tower on the walmart side, (sprint store, walmart, coldstone, etc) I can't do crap until I find wifi. Go over to Dick's, Jason's, target etc and it works fine. even though the signal is 1-3db weaker on the Target side. i was hoping once they switched to the NV/ehrpd backend it would improve in places like that and at my office. (Davis Dr and 54) but it's actually WORSE here at the office now that it's on ehrpd. I've lost 6db since two weeks ago at the office with the move to ehrpd, (i worked from home last week) Sadly, even though I have a REALLY good deal with sprint, If something doesn't change soon, I'm going to have to change as it's unusable in so many places around here. Edit: Went to do a speed test to get a bad screen shot, and i'm now on 1xRTT:6 with a -87dBm signal. Argh. Oh well. off to jimmie john's so at lest something will be freaky fast today. -

According to the store at brier creek, they are claiming LTE towers are already starting to come live in the area. They said it was on their sprint intranet. My buddies that work for Sprint could not find anything indicating that. They couldn't even find anything mentioning as much as we could see that several towers have moved to ehrpd etc. And when one of them asked around, the reply he got was January at the earliest for first towers having LTE turned on. I'm hoping that is NOT the case. -

So was my threat to poop on them. On a more amusing note to me is the conflicting information sprint seems to release. -

They would probably blame it on their cheating in fantasy football against me this year. Bastards. -

I'm hoping. If not I'm going to go poop on someone at Sprint. -

If android, Settings About device Status Or the speedtest app shows you. My speed went up a lot. Still meh. But on evdo for the last few weeks it failed the ping and upload and was <50k -

That doesn't make sense to me either. Seems they would "test" 4g maybe but once it's goi g through the lte backend, even if lte isn't on they'd leave that so they could flip a software switch at once to go live with lte. Weird. -

Grrrr. So I'm seeing ehrpd from my house now on both towers. (North Raleigh) But my signal is now 6-12 db worse. Putting me closer to 95 db. -

that's good to hear. I still can barely use my galaxy s3 from work in RTP. (Near Davis and 54) I'm praying that when they open up it will fix the complete lack of signal here. And my speeds at home have gone down significantly on 3g in the last few months.
